what is passpoint secure wifi

Passpoint is a protocol developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance that streamlines Wi-Fi access and eliminates the need for users to find and authenticate a network each time they visit. Passpoint-enabled client devices can automatically connect to Passpoint access points (APs) upon subsequent visits, eliminating the need for users to search for and choose a network, request Wi-Fi access, and re-enter authentication credentials each time they visit. Passpoint uses enterprise security with the latest security protocols, such as WPA2 and WPA3, for enhanced security and protection against hacking attempts. Passpoint provisioning supports on-boarding of new devices by establishing credential information and providing policy information to the mobile device. Passpoint is supported by most enterprise-class APs on the market today and natively supported by major mobile devices.
